Change hardware without loss of data

Node Operators FAQ

Hi, I would like to change my hardware without loss of data. If I have understood this correctly, I only have to consider the following three points:

  • Install/Setup a new storJ Server
  • Copy the Identity and Data from old hardware to new
  • Execute run command with the new values

Is there anything else I should be aware of?

Yes, this link:

“Lower your space allocation so that your node is full. Then it only has to serve the little bit of download. That reduces the load on your HDD significantly and might be enough to rsync while the node is running.”
